Run an Antivirus Scan

Scan your endpoints with either Ivanti AntiVirus or a third-party antivirus program. In either case, perform a thorough scan to ensure that you identify and remove any dormant malware.

Because a thorough antivirus scan could take a long time to complete, we recommend that you schedule the scan outside of your organization's operating hours. If you must run the scan during working hours, notify users so that they're aware of the process.

To Scan Endpoints with Ivanti AntiVirus

From the Endpoint Security Console, use the Scan Now - Virus and Malware Scan Wizard to perform a thorough or full system scan. See The Virus and Malware Scan Wizard in the Ivanti AntiVirus Help for detailed steps.

Select all the scanning options, including Scan archives, as shown.

You've patched known vulnerabilities and removed malware. Your endpoints are now in a "known good" state and you're ready to create your endpoint whitelist.
